Pierre & Bastien "Musique grecque" LP (SDZ 021)

Sorti en Avril 2010, quelques mois après le premier single du groupe ("No Sex" / "Crise boursière"), le morceau "RMI" présent sur la compilation "Flottante tension d'éclipse" constituait le premier
soutien officiel du label SDZ au groupe Pierre & Bastien. Suivront le morceau "Démocratie" sur la compilation cassette "Reviviscence Ectoplasmique" et "Déglingo" sur la compilation vinyle
"Quadrature du carré". Malgré toute l'affection que nous portons à la compilation - genre qui n'en est pas un et qui est, en plus, décrié - c'est aujourd'hui à travers la sortie d'un album, intitulé "Musique grecque" que le label SDZ soutient à niveau Pierre & Bastien.

Ce troisième album studio du groupe parisien est d'une construction aussi maîtrisée que les deux précédents. Les textes de Paul Jimenes ne refoulent rien mais prennent la forme d'habiles jongles
entre l'intime et le social, offrant plusieurs niveaux de compréhension. Les moments sombres voire menaçants chassent les passages les plus joyeux et enthousiastes. Une fois de plus ce combat de l'âme, sans maniérisme, nous projette de manière fascinante au cœur de la vie du groupe.

Musicalement le groupe gagne encore en puissance et en intensité: le jeu de guitare éblouissant de Baptiste Nollet et les rythmiques quasi-industrielles de Frédéric Trux inscrivent les chansons
dans une filiation aussi française qu'anglo-saxonne où l'on croiserait pêle-mêle les Dogs, Metal Urbain, Reich Orgasm, Wire et autres Wipers. A la brutalité ou au psychédélisme débridé de certains
morceaux répondent des harmonies vocales parfois très pop ou osons-le "chanson française".

Du minimaliste et ravageur "Sympa", en ouverture, au sombre et inquiétant "A nu", en clôture, en passant par le percutant "Secret" ou le léger "Musique grecque", Pierre & Bastien a construit un
album dense, varié et plus complexe qu'il ne peut paraître aux premiers abords. A vous maintenant d'en découvrir tous les recoins!

Pierre & Bastien "Musique grecque" LP (SDZ 021)

Back in April 2010, a few months after the release of their debut single ("No Sex" / "Crise boursière"), SDZ included Pierre & Bastien's "RMI" on its 10-year anniversary compilation. Later on,
other songs from the band ("Démocratie" and "Déglingo") were featured on other compilations released by the label. As much as we like compilations - a genre that is not a genre and that no one seems to fully appreciate - we decided to go one step further in our support of Pierre & Bastien and to actually release an album by them.

This third studio album shows the band at its best with a well-constructed set of songs. Paul Jimenes' lyrics hold nothing back but simulateneously juggle brilliantly between private and social
subjects hence creating several possible levels of understanding. Dark or menacing moods chase the light and brighter ones. Once again this fight of the soul puts us, without any preciosity, at
the heart of the band's life.

Musically, the band is more powerful and intense as ever: guitarist Baptiste Nollet is particularly dazzling and Frédéric Trux pounds sometimes a nearly industrial rhythm to the songs. One could
see in their sound derivations from bands like Wire, Wipers, Dogs, Metal Urbain or Reich Orgasm. To the sheer brutality or depraved psychedelics of some tracks respond pop-like vocal harmonies of some other ones.

From the minimalist and destructive opener "Sympa" to the dark and disturbing closer "A nu", from the striking "Secret" to the light "Musique grecque", Pierre & Bastien has crafted a dense, varied
and more-complex-than-it-seems album. It's now yours to discover!
